Citizen Petition for a 100 Year Solution

We’ve talked about the Sound Transit plan to cross Pacific Avenue on the south side of downtown.  It would connect the Sounder to Lakewood.  It would provide a route for Amtrak’s route south.  It would increase Tacoma Rail’s ability to move trains. Well, the perceived impact of these changes on our city seems to vary depending on who you ask. In some cases, quite wildly. So, a number of folks are starting to ask for an independent evaluation. “We need a 100 year solution to our transit development not a quick fix for the sake of expediency.”

Take a look at the petition. If you agree, sign it. Maybe you can get your organization to sign it. Then, mail, fax, or scan and email it to the address at the bottom of the page.
